German Doctor: To one thing, my dear Doctor, just to their temperance. American: But Doctor, we think of your people as heavy drinkers. German: Ah, but the drink is beer. While other nationalities have their wines, whiskies and vodkas con taining large percentages of alcohol and very little food value, we stick to our beer with its nourishing barley and tonical hops and only Z]A% alcohol. tMwkM^ American: You say only 3^% alcohol as though that ingredient were not beneflciaL i German: I do not mean it in that sense. We flnd alcohol has a.food and stimulating value when the pro portion is not too great. The danger is in overstimulation, impossible when the percentage is so small as in beer. American: Perhaps the superiority of your people may be due to the superiority of your beers. German: Don't mistake there. We are strong admirers of your Schlitz Beer. It evidences the care used in its brewing. Its full rich flavor brings to you the taste of the barley and the hops, so often lost in the different processes. It has the sparkle and life, too, due to a perfect yeast. The freedom from germs shows careful sterilization. The fact that it does not cause biliousness proves its perfect lagering, or aging as you say. American: That is splendid, Doctor. I have been using Schlitz Beer in my practice, prescribing it where my patients needed an easily digested food which has some tonic value. Especially beneficial, I have found it, after surgical operations where the stomach refused to retain other food. Also in cases where the patient was not' inclined to drink enough to flush the system of its waste. German: When you Americans generally appreciate these benefits of beer, then may the Fatherland take heed or your country will outstrip us as we have our neighbors; but good progress to you and the temperance work of Schlitz, The Beer That Made Milwaukee.
